Temescal Canyon Hike

Park on Sunset, Temescal Canyon, or some residential sidestreets. Just watch out for signage.

This will be approximately a 4 mile hike (from Sunset Blvd to Sunset Blvd). about 850 feet or considered maybe a level 3-4 (?) hike.

This is a moderately difficult hike. Although I will say that even though challenging, people who are complete beginners still found it very enjoyable, yet challenging.

This will be the main Temescal Ridge and canyon loop starting from the canyon side and then going down the ridge side.

Bring water, snacks, good shoes, and just in case . . . . a headlamp if you have one, although you most likely will not need it.

Hi everyone,

I actually made next Sundays hike an hour earlier at 2:30 instead of 3:30. Hopefully that's not a problem for anyone, so please adjust your schedules as necessary.

This hike is my default, and although I was thinking of checking out another hike, we haven't done Temescal in nearly two months, so it works out.

But the days are still just a bit too short for a 3:30 two hour hike, so we'll start at 2:30, with the sun going down at 4:30.

Maybe this time there should be a little water coming down the waterfall as it is the wet season.
